special tax will be levied next year for
the purpose of erecting another public
school building in Charleston. The neces-
sty for increased public school facilities in
the upper wards has long been apparent,
and the Commissioners decided sometime
ago to erect new building to be used in
stead of the old Meeting street school, which
is much too small for the fast increasing
population of the upper wards.

thing. Business doesn't come to the mer-
chant who waits. We don't propose to
wait. For weeks we have been busy get

of tailor-made suits. We didn't buy it to
keep, but to SELL and now we want to sell it,
You may not be ready to buy yet, yet
many are buying their fall and winter suits
now. The early buyer has many advan-
tages over the late one-full lines, large as
sorUment and great variety in fabrics-yet
we aim to keep our lines full at all times
In some cases it can't be done, hence we sug-
gest the advantage of early buyers. You
have no idea how well we can serve you;
variety in colors, fabrics and low prices are
our inducements. We assure perfect fits
What more can you ask! Come and go
over our stock with us; your eyes will be

CHARLESTON IN BAD opoR.

New Orleans and Memphis Unite in
Denouncing Her Umpiring.
New ORLEANS, Oct. Jack Peltz and
the Memphis players laugh at the reports of
fair treatment at Charleston. They got a
fair deal to-day, and New Orleans did what
little kicking was made against Sucks UNI
piring. Smith pitched the best game he
ever did against New Orleans, but Ewing
pitched still better. Both sides fielded
magniicently all the time, Phelan and
GeisS, especially making catches that set
the crowd wild. The players were on the
alert and took advantage of every misplay.
New Orleans made the most of these and
lost the game New Orleans lacked Cart
wright and Vaughn, and Powell had an off
day. New Orleans was shut out until the
eighth, when good base running, little hit
ting and Crotty's error let in two runs The
score, by innings, follows:
Memphis -....... I o. 0 ? *
New Orleans ...... 0 o o 0 ? O. 2

WINDING UP THE SEASON.
The Closing Series of Gam es in the
Southern League.

The Closing Series of Gam es in the
Southern League.
The last games OF the season in the South
ern League began yesterday at Charleston,
Birmingham and Charleston being the OPP
posing teams This is the way the base bail
editor Of the NetrS aud Courier reviews the
seasons work: THE season of 1857 has not
been brilliant one in the South. Imbecility
and careleSsneSs on the part Of the
executive of the league, not TO say
absolute unfairneSs, have done all that
could be done To break up the game.
Base ball would have come to an end
long since in Charleston but for the perse-
verance and liberality OF handful of public
spirited citizens, who refused all offers to sell
out, and maintained Charlestons franchise
in the league at heavy personal expense.
Thanks to the Nashville umpire in the early
part Of the season. and more recently TO the
home umpire, Charleston has been cheated
ont Of the pennant. But even this has not
dismayed those who are paying for base ball
for Charleston
Savannah is fairly out of the muddle and
got out just in time to save its reputation,
even II it lost its money. The burning of
the grand stand at the park, and the expi-
ration of the lease on the property next
year. with the lack Of interest in the spirit
among SavannahianS, are pretty strong in
huences against any attempt at reorganiza-
ton Of the club 1t goes without saying
that base ball IN Savannah is a dead issue.

CHARLESTON, S. C., Oct. 7.-Something
very much like a farce was played at Base
Ball Park this afternoon. There was not
enough gate money to pay the guarantee
and both clubs played what the New Or
leans papers would call "a happy and care
les game Up 10 the sixth inning the visi-
tors played tolerably well. Then Ester
quest began to sulk. The rest of his team
lost their heads and the locals made seven
runs. After that it was a farce Charles
ton scored in the first, second, sixth and
ninth innings twelve runs. Birmingham
was shut out. Smith, Charleston's pitcher,
umpired.

There is no argument necessary to estab-

health is impossible. Every intelligent per-

manifest themselves in various shapes

the trouble-the kidneys, the liver or the
